| Danish Proverb - S
Secret gifts are openly rewarded.Set a fox to catch a fox.Shame comes to no man unless he himself help it on the way.Shared sorrow is half sorrow.Short flax makes long thread.Short pleasure often brings long repentance.Should the heavens fall, many pipkins will be broken.Sickness comes in haste, and goes at leisure.Sickness comes uninvited--no need to bespeak it.Sickness is every man's master.Sight goes before hearsay.Silent tongue and hempen heart often go together.Silver and gold are all men's dears.Slander expires at a good woman's door.Small beer comes the last.Small profits are sweet.Smoke, rain, and a scolding wife, are three bad things in a house.So many heads, so many minds.Sorrow seldom comes alone.Sparrows should not dance with cranes, their legs are too short.Speak little of your ill luck, and boast not of your good luck.Speaking silence is better than senseless speech.Speech is oft repented, silence seldom.Speech is often repented, silence never.Suffering and patience, obedience and application, help the lowly born to honour. |
